Ketamine-induced deficit of auditory gating in the hippocampus of rats is alleviated by medial septal inactivation and antipsychotic drugs.

Summary: Schizophrenic patients do not experience the usual diminished response to repeated stimuli, otherwise known as gating. Gating loss can be caused by the administration of some psychotomimetic drugs. This study used 170 ng injections of 192-IgG-SAP (Cat. #IT-01) to examine the effect of ketamine on sensory gating loss. Elimination of septohippocampal cholinergic neurons alleviated the disruption of auditory gating caused by ketamine.
